Description

This shiur discusses the concept of simcha on Sukkos. Specifically, the shiur emphasizes the fact at the Hashem desirese every Jew's presence in the Beis Hamikdash during the shalosh regalim. When we realize that we have just as much to contribute to Klal Yisrael as anybody else, we feel simcha in the fact that we have our unique place in the "circle of Klal Yisrael."
